Commonly considered noise, Reggaeton's reputation is off to a bad start here in the States. Close-minded english-speaking people with maybe two years' worth of high school spanish under their belt are quick to reject this new genre. Reggaeton evolved from both Reggae and Jamaican Dancehall music. So, it's a dancing genre, like the waltz or salsa or tango. Because it's a dancing genre, the beat is the same tap-tap-bass in almost every song.

Most people discard the genre based on that fact alone. And that's just silly, seeing as the ever-popular bubble-gum pop has the same boom-boom-tap beat. Which, when you think about it, sounds pretty similar to the Reggaeton beat. And for you ravers out there who also balk at this genre: Drum-N-Bass? Trance? Happy Hardcore? Boom-hiss Boom-hiss. HULLO! Trance is just as repetitive in it's beats as Reggaeton. I listen to techno, and that beat in every song I realized actually helps me appreciate the music AND slip into the trance the music was designed to make me. Reggaeton's beat does the EXACT. SAME. THING.

Next: Lyrics. Yes, some of them are sexist and crude. But let's face it, this is America, we can't even listen to Christina Aguilera's "Dirrty" without getting our panties in a twist. Also, Ludacris, anyone? Yeah, his stuff's pretty nasty, too. But you guys still listen to him! Oh yeah, Ying Yang Twins, Lil' John, all those idiots rap about fucking drunk girls brains out, regardless, "Get Low" is still played at every high school dance without fail. It's really easy to say that rap is sexist and crass and inappropriate. But it isn't completely. Usher, LL Cool-J, Ne-yo, P.Diddy all sing or rap about love or just clubbing and having a good time. Reggaeton's exactly the same. Just because Reggaeton's banner boy Daddy Yankee has a dirty mouth, don't dismiss the genre. Some of these guys (and girls like Ivy Queen) have good voices and nice lyrics.

A cross between bad nigger-club music and even worse beaner-club music to form the absolute lowest form of noise: Jungle-Beaner music. Jungle-Beaners, also known as Spickaboos, originated from the offspring of uneducated jungle monkeys and foul-smelling wet-backs. This new filthy abomination then took an enormous shit, forced it onto a compact disk and sold it to both gorillas and wet-backs.

A bullshit that affects people minds with extremely bad and disgusting words and actions. And it is not the tipycal "music" of central america an caribean, it's the typical NOISE!!! of the people that doesn't know anything about music.

The worst "music" invented by human kind that only talks about how to get a women in bed and do her and how there all gangsta which they aren't.. They try to copy off of reggae, salsa, rap and a whole bunch of other orginal music styles....This is also disrespectful to themselves and the world. it uses the same beat and they try to sing with hip hop artist to get more credit and respect. And wannabe daddy yankees always blast it because they think its the coolest shit but don't know what the hell there saying in the song

Daddy Yankee
R.K.M y Ken-Y

Reggaeton has a whole bunch of other bullshit people i wipe my ass with

Typical music from Puerto Rico and Central America. An urban mix of hip-hop, rap and reggae-dance. Born in the early '90s called "Underground". Back then, it had a more tropical beat, hence the 'reggae' part of the name.
During it's origin, Reggaeton was often banned from the radio and the music was distributed under the table because most of the songs' lyrics were relationed to sex, drugs and violence.
It has now evolutioned into a genuine genre, and is at its peak.
